How to speak with your insurance company

What to Know When Speaking with Your Insurance Company

After a serious accident, you will most likely have to file an insurance claim and communicate with your insurance company. While it’s important that you cooperate with your insurance company, many attorneys will caution you to be mindful of what you say and reveal, as any statements can later be used against you.

We Represent Good People

with Real Problems


When you are facing any legal issue, having experienced and respected counsel by your side is invaluable. However, if you are the victim of a personal injury or medical malpractice, having a dedicated and knowledgeable attorney can help you get your life and finances back in order after a difficult ordeal.


Since our founding, we have recovered significant sums of money for clients in cases involving personal injury, including car and truck accidents, as well as medical malpractice, dangerous prescription drugs and unsafe medical devices such as IVC filters.

Recorded Statements Given to Insurance Companies


In particular, when speaking with your insurer, be wary of giving recorded statements. This is especially true if you are speaking with the insurance company about other drivers or parties involved in your accident.


Some insurance companies will ask for a recorded statement or threaten to void your coverage. In these instances, it can be beneficial to consult an attorney prior to doing so, especially if you have experienced serious injuries or your property has suffered significant damage.


Be Polite. Be Courteous. Be Careful.


When speaking to your company, being polite and straightforward is important, and you should be careful not to divulge any more than what is absolutely necessary. Often, stating the facts may be the best way to proceed:

  • State that you were in an accident
  • Mention any injuries
  • Share the insurance information of other parties, if applicable


Beyond this, you may be placing yourself at a long-term disadvantage, particularly if you divulge your role in the accident.


In most instances, conferring with an attorney can help set you up for success, particularly if you involve an experienced lawyer who can negotiate on your behalf.
